Friday, June 7, 2024 Skyservice Business Aviation, a leading North American business aviation company, will allocate capacity at its Calgary, Toronto, and Montreal locations for Gogo Business Aviation AVANCE installations, improving inflight connectivity for flight crews and passengers. As a Gogo-authorized dealer in Canada, Skyservice has launched a program to establish a center of excellence where customers with legacy air-to-ground (ATG) systems (ATG 1000, 2000, 4000, and 5000) can secure priority bookings for AVANCE installations in anticipation of Gogo’s early 2026 network migration to long-term evolution (LTE) technology. “Timing is essential for aircraft owners to upgrade their Gogo systems before the network cutover date and Skyservice is prepared with dedicated slots and skilled crew to perform expert installations with minimum downtime,” said Benjamin Murray, President and CEO of Skyservice.
“Our ultimate goal is to extend the long-term value of customers’ aircraft, maintain safe operations and improve the operating experience for pilot, crew and passengers alike.” Aircraft owners who do not upgrade to an AVANCE system will lose their Gogo inflight connectivity once the network migration is complete. Conversely, those who upgrade from a legacy system to AVANCE will experience an immediate improvement in connectivity performance, with an additional enhancement upon the network’s transition to LTE.
“Skyservice has been a valued Gogo partner since 2013,.
